John?

thanks as always for the free winners. although I'm sure you've explained this before and I've looked on your website for a possible answer, I'm curious to what "physically down pitchers" and "triple up pitchers" theoretically means. I understand these are situational tendencies, but wondering exactly what angle you are seeing in these scenarios. much appreciated. btw - was in houston last week and went to irma's sothwestern grill near minute maid. best damn tex-mex I ever had!

Friday,

Here is some info about Biorhythms.....

At the beginning of the last century, Dr. Wilhelm Fliess noticed identical rhythms in the case histories of his patients. He observed active and passive phases in the physical, emotional and mental aspects of humans. From these observations he derived the principle of the biorhythms: The physical curve with its cycle of 23 days, the emotional curve with 28 days and the mental curve with 33 days.

Interpretation:

When the curve of any cycle is above the midline, we experience a "high" in the corresponding field (physical, emotional or mental). If it is the physical curve, you will feel bodily well and, for example, if you were to have an operation the body would be more resilent. If it is the emotional curve, you will be in a good mood and your contact with other people will be positive. If it is the mental curve, your thought processes will be sharper, concentration will be easier and you may have a lot of ideas and insights.

When the curve of any cycle is below the midline, we experience a "low" in the corresponding field. If it is a physical low, you may feel weak and listless; if it is an emotional low, you may feel miserable and out of sorts; if it is a mental low, thinking can be foggy and concentration hard.

When any of the curves crosses the midline, this is a critical time in the corresponding field and if two curves cross the midline at the same point, this is a very critical time. Critical in the physical field means you may feel exhausted and it is better to avoid physical effort and operations. Critical in the emotional field means you may feel irritable and sad, and emotional outbreaks are likely so it is better to avoid conflicts and arguments. Critical in the mental field finally means sluggish thinking and it is better to postpone activities that demand a lot of concentration.


Biorhythms can't predict or explain events, they can only suggest how we may deal with them. For example, some doctors plan operations around them or sports coaches use them in their individual training programs. But it is up to you whether you believe in them or not.


I use this as another handicapping tool. I try to play against pitchers that are physically down, and play on pitchers that are pitching triple up. If both pitchers in a game are pitching physically down, I look to play the over. Also if you have a pitcher pitching physically down in Colorado, I look at the over.

I don't just play these blindly, but I do use them to help cap the games. Last week was a good example. Boston's David Wells was pitching physically down while the O's Bruce Chen was pitching triple up. Baltimore beat up the Sox. When you find one of the better pitchers in the league pitching triple up, you will usually see a dominating performance.


Hope this helps to explain it. Let me know if you have any more questions!
